Creeps take notice and prepare yourself for a night of spooktacular proportions! Wednesday March 25th from 6 to 8PM we have horror host extraordinaire Mr. Lobo on hand to celebrate and sign copies of his line of Cinema Insomnia DVD’s. The Cinema Insomnia releases feature classic horror flicks like Night of the Living Dead, Wasp Woman, Carnival of Souls and more, all hosted by the man himself Mr Lobo. Each one is infused with weirdo sketches and insane humor that breathes new life into these well know stables of the genre. So clear your schedule and make sure to come down to Forbidden Planet for an experience like no other!
Matt D has been a manager, buyer and event coordinator at Forbidden Planet since 2005 or maybe it was 2006. Who can remember? We didn't even have computers back then. A native New Yorker from the borough of Queens, raised on Sunday Funnies, Monster Movies and Rock N' Roll. What better place to end up than Forbidden Planet where he can use his position to influence the city's pop culture. A responsibility he takes seriously more now than ever due to New York's consistent change for the worse. The last thing NYC needs is another cafe or bank so thank whatever it is you believe in that Forbidden Planet is here to stay. Beyond the walls of FP, Matt is a publicly recognized expert in cult and horror cinema with a focus on VHS. He is the founder of Horror Boobs a collective that books screenings and distributes weirdo films, the producer of the documentary Adjust Your Tracking: The Untold Story of the VHS collector, the publisher of the Blood Video zine, and is regrettably responsible for resurrecting the career of schizophrenic Shot-on Video director Carl J Sukenick.
